Ok, now I'm confused. From reading this page:
http://gmcmotorhome.info/brakes.html
specifically the link about various Master Cylinder and Caliper sizes, the OEM master
cylinder has a 1 1/8" bore. All the replacements I see in the parts exchange are for 1 1/4" bores.
In the data comparison tables, the bigger bore gives you much LESS braking power, yes?? So if you've
got stock brakes, shouldn't you stick with the stock Master Cylinder size???

perplexed,

Thinking it would be good to have a spare MC available, just in case...
